Amazon sent me an email about Robert Fulghum’s new book, Third Wish.I eagerly clicked over to read the summary, and was surprised – shocked, even – to discover that it’s a novel. And not just any novel, but one with music composed especially for it, and apparently with a unique (or contrived, depending on the reviewer) writing style.

I like Fulghum’s philosophy and perspective. I love that he seems to truly care about being a good person. But I’m not so sure this novel is worth reading. So has anyone read it, and if so, what did you think?

Yes, I was fortunate to get an advance copy from Amazon last September through the Amazon Vine program. To be honest, I didn’t care for it, but many other Amazon reviewers did. If you look up the book on Amazon you will see my complete review (Timothy B. Riley), I believe that it is the first one listed. You will also see quite a few other reviews from readers that were crazy about it. It received mostly 4 and 5 star ratings (I gave it a 2). I hope that this helps!
